About Us
The Gillings School of Global Public Health is the top public school of public health and number two overall, according to the U.S. News & World Report 2022 ranking. Our mission is to improve public health, promote individual well-being and eliminate health inequities across North Carolina and around the world.
As the world continues to confront the coronavirus and its new variants, researchers and practitioners from every discipline at the Gillings School are contributing to pandemic response, informing everything from vaccine development to thought leadership on ethical issues related to pandemics. As we train the next generation of public health professionals, we’re working to bring diverse perspectives to our School and the public health workforce, and 957 of our students received scholarships last year. This support can have a huge impact on the lives of those who receive them and helps make sure top students have a home in North Carolina.
